- EEricaSan Diego •6 reviews5.0Dined todayExcellent food and service. The rigatoni pasta was a huge hit as was the bread with ricotta, crudo, salmon, and ny strip. Alura (not sure of spelling) was such a great server. We’ll be back and request her section.More infoJuniperPrice: Expensive• Italian• East Austin•4.6
- SSammiMiami - Dade •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoEverything was great! Hostess and server were very friendly and helpful. I’ve visited the location in Miami several times and it was nice having a location here in Austin as well and everything is just as good! I got the squid ink tonnareli and it was spicy and delicious. Vibe and ambiance was nice, entire restaurant was spacious. Highly recommended having a reservation?More infoNorth Italia - Austin 2nd StreetPrice: Moderate• Italian• Downtown•4.6
- MMarkusAustin •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoWe went to Feast of Seven Fishes on Christmas Eve. The courses and wine pairings were fabulous. Our server, Ashley, was friendly, fun, and professional. The owner, Al Fini, came by to check on us and answer questions on wine selections. Al has an outstanding wine menu with some of my Italian favorites, e.g., Amarone, Brunello di Montalcino, etc. There was even a jazz pianist. This place is a treasure, go now hahaMore infoIt's Italian CucinaPrice: Expensive• Italian• South Austin•4.8
- DDavidSan Antonio •3 reviews5.0Dined 5 days agoAuthentic Italian food. Lamb ragú made with real lamb stew meat, not ground lamb. Bread was homemade. Calamari not heavy. Would come back in a heartbeat.More infoJuliet Italian Kitchen - Barton SpringsPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.7
- TTarynVIPMinneapolis - St. Paul •8 reviews5.0Dined 6 days agoI had such an amazing experience at Intero with my husband last night, the food was beyond my expectations, and the service was impeccable. I highly recommend the gnocchi with duck confit, and the risotto with duck breast. The Wagyu beef appetizer was phenomenal as well. Don’t skimp out on the Butter cake if you have room in your stomach for a tasty dessert. I can’t wait to come back for more! More infoInteroPrice: Expensive• Italian• East Austin•4.9
